Not to jack this thread, but THANK YOU! Never thought 54 could feel so good! My sons say I'm the coolest dad that kids (they're 24 and 22) could have so for that, I'm thankful.

We really do not recommend halos for those lamps as they basically have to be cut open to install them.

I wouldn't go higher than 6K. 4500 is the whithest with 6K a hint of blue but still good light output.

From americanmuscle.com, do you think your hids will fit with those smoked mustang headlights with ccfl halo (05-09)?

so whats the difference between the 55w and 35w?

With a true 55w kit like ours, meaning 55w ballasts and 55w bulbs, its greater output without the significant drawbacks of the cheap kits overdriving bulbs.
Expect 30%-40% increase with our 55w compared to 35w.
